Amazing nursery. I've sent both my children as they both love it when we say "school time". The staff are great, they help with extra days where possible and both teachers that deal with my kids are friendly and helpful. I would recommend.

My son has never been to nursery before and this is his first experience, he has been made to feel very welcome and is loving his time at nursery.

Reply from Banana Moon Rothwell, Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Rothwell

We are so happy that your son is loving his time at nursery, we think that the settling in process is very important and strive to make each one unique to that child, so they feel comfortable and settled in the nursery and you feel good leaving them here in our care.

It's a real shame we can no longer enter the nursery due to Covid but the staff do a really great job of keeping you informed. The app is great to see how the children are doing.

Overall Experience
My son has and is developing so well at Banana Moon we believe the staff performance levels to be outstanding. He thoroughly enjoys attending, staff are always friendly and professional.

The reason I believe the value for money is satisfactory is it is around the going rate, possibly more expensive at Banana Mon, plus I am from Yorkshire after all. Overall superb 10/10

Review from Louise O (Mother of Child) published on 20 May 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was really nervous about returning to work after my maternity leave. But just seeing how well my son has settled in and just how much he enjoys going to Banana Moon has really made me feel loads better. He has excelled in so many educational qualities, and the staff go above and beyond to make him feel welcomed and comfortable. I will be sad to see him leave at the end of August when he goes to big school, and I'm sure my son will be too. Although he comes home all the time saying he can't wait to go to big school, I do know they are helping already make the big transition.

Review from Amy L (Mother of Child) published on 15 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Banana Moon Rothwell since he was 9 months old. As a sensitive boy, he has gained so much confidence thanks to the staff, facilities and routines. Staff are always available to talk if you have questions and have helped us with strategies to tackle our son’s eating, sleeping and behaviour both at home and nursery - something all new parents need. We certainly feel like their care doesn’t stop when we leave nursery and staff really consider each child and their family’s individual circumstances. Access to outside space is also a huge bonus for us.

My son loves Banana Moon Day Nursery at Rothwell. The staff are amazing, friendly and made my son so happy everyday.
I have no fear when he is there as I know he is safe and has the best care.
Banana Moon implements new innovations for kids and parents as well. The new teaching system for our baby development is a fabulous idea.

I can recommend to everyone as the Banana Moon is a great place.
